January 15, 1993 announcement on WMGM-TV of the death of legendary lyricist Sammy Cahn. John Kosich ran part of interview he did with Sammy on how he came to write "Three Coins In A Fountain."
Sammy was one of the most clever songwriters in American music history. The fact that he could pound out a lyric on a moment's notice is amazing. Sadly, that kind of craftsmanship has long left the musical scene. Cahn and his contemporaries are greatly missed.
I could not agree more.
